    Hi-Metal R

    Yes... https://tamashiiweb.com/item/14457/
  2. Same....although I have not seen any pics of the Zentran pilot....I guess there is not much one can do with these POs at this point...I did reply asking about the figures, not sure if they will respond with anything before shipping them out.....I'll have mine soon
  3. If you attach the fists...they can fold into the arm...so technically it's as PT as a Yamato or Bandai DX... I don't own any other Three Zero toys so not sure if wratcheted joints are not their thing.....maybe someone who is more familiar with their toys can confirm.... Mine is still holding up just fine since it's initial release and I have transformed it numerous times....the biggest weakness is that loose bit at the waist....not sure how well the same piece is holding up on the DX as I seldom transform the 2 I have opened....just don't care for the scale thus not as interested in fiddling around with it to find out...
  4. If the Fugu Jetfire is anything like other KO 1\60 VFs....then yes....you would be dissapointed....I have a KO 1\60 SSP VF-1S and IMO it is better than a "legit" 1\72 KC VF-1.....with that said...if you just wanted to have both on a static display as a testament to the audacity of KO purveyors these days...it would be a fun display....
  5. If you are someone that likes to admire your Macross toys on a shelf or display cabinet...they don't look too bad from afar....if you like to transform them often, then look elsewhere....they are on the delicate side....for me, I like them enough to collect canon schemes....the "jetfire" looks good but there are fitment issues in fighter mode, which is the weakest mode on all of KC's VF-1's...especially when mounted with Super Packs...at least after the lone VF-1J V 2.0 release....the hope, at least for me, was to also have Enemy Mecha, Destroids, and Zentradi figures from their 6" line to compliment their VF's at their scale....but that hope seems to be diminishing fast....
  6. New Regult video posted to the KC FB page.... https://m.facebook.com/kitzconcept/ ...and some obvious Mr. K style teases....at this point KC should just focus on getting the Regults and Zentran pilots shipped... Anyone find an actual "review" of the Regult from the alleged Chinese release?
  7. Definitely not placing any additional pre-orders.... I am still looking forward to the Regults....they look good from the few pics that have been posted... They are definitely running out of "canon" paint schemes....so they may be reaching their end anyway....at this point I do not see them doing a VF-1D...maybe they can finally release the Alaska base VF-1's before they bow out....
  8. Saw it this weekend...had it's moments but for the most part it didn't work for me.... I liked the flashback-origin scene, my favorite of the entire movie...it was perfect...but the rest just seemed like it was just rehashing the original... The ending was kind of a mess....but definitely left everything open for a third movie....
  9. Yeah...would be nice if something could have been released for the 40th DYRL Anniversary....but after google translating the blurb...seems the writer of the article just cobbled one together using the SSP from the old school Bandai Hi-Metal 1/55 release from...one can still hope...
  10. Interesting...guess they gave up on it working for the HCM and applied the pull-back 'walking' action to the Paro Valkyrie? ...actually, it may be the other way around, as the Paro's were released before the HCM....but the HCM was 'conceived' under Takatoku's watch but sadly they went BK before they had a chance to release it....too bad Bandai, at the time, did not do much with their newly acquired Macross licenses....imagine HCM Super O's and Elint's...
  11. As of now....I have all regult variations on PO....the Hikaru GBP....and the Arcade Set w/Milia.....going to be a long wait to get all these POs fullfilled....but as other have already stated....PO-ing anything else from them is no longer an option for me....the first thing that came up that I skipped on po-ing was the Focker GBP armor.... And recently they threatened to go the Kickstarter route for the Destroids and Glaug.....why? They claim to own their own production facility now...they can produce based on deposits-po's made...if they get enough they proceed......oh wait....they abused that process and can no longer rely on it...not sure how a Kickstarter would be any different...it probably would be worse...
  12. I just thought it was showing the transformation points...haven't had a chance to Google translate it
  13. There was supposed to be a Focker 1\55 strike? Also some of the HCM lineart seems previously unpublished...
  14. Indeed it is.....so far I managed to get through the part where the elves take possession of the three rings....barely... The series is mind-numbingly boring.....I'd rather watch an endless loop of Aragorn & Co running across massive landscapes....at least the music would be enjoyable....
  15. I can't keep up with the Gen Alpha speak...is cursed worse than sigma?...at least they didn't refer to it as being skibbidi...or would that be a good thing?
  16. Funny how Wolverine took down a dinosaur for being hungry...

  18. It's worth getting based on the description of the content
  19. Maybe that is Threezero's plan (hope)...unlike KitzConcept....they have no "Macross" logos plastered anywhere on their packaging....it is a strictly "Robotech" item... I would probably double-dip for a Japan-only release....
  20. Went with a copy of the "limited edition" set....will try to pick up any of the retailer-specific extras if they come up on their own...or if anyone here only wants to keep the discs of the regular releases and would sell the extras let me know via PM...I am referring to the A3 posters which seem to be different from some of the web retailers....
